| But only such changes are transmissible to future generations as have resulted from modifications arising in the idioplasm. |
| This at once suggests the objection, how can the idioplasm, for instance, of a pollen grain be the same as that of a leaf? |
| Hence along with perfected determinants the idioplasm always contains growing and incomplete determinants. |
| Each ontogeny begins in a minute germ cell, in which a small quantity of idioplasm is contained. |
| It will be found that characters totally contradictory are ascribed to Weismann's idioplasm. |
| This constitutes the automatic perfecting process or progression of the idioplasm, and entropy of organic matter. |
